Before he was known as “Angas ng Tondo” in the local professional league, Paul Lee was a simple young man wanting a better life for his family.
The former University of the East King Warrior will share his story this Thursday (September 15) on “Sports U” on ABS-CBN. Before joining the UE Red Warriors in the UAAP, Lee gained recognition in the local basketball scene as a high schooler when he was part of the San Sebastian Staglets squad that featured the likes of former UAAP players and stars in Arvie Bringas, Eric Salamat, and Ryan Buenafe.
He soon found himself being the heart and soul of his school’s team when he led the Red Warriors to the Finals of the UAAP in Season 72 against Ateneo. For the “Angas ng Tondo,” basketball was more than life as it brought him lots of blessings in special ways, one of which was getting a call to represent the nation as a Gilas Pilipinas member in international basketball tournaments.
